2 The Committee on Women's Rights of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union for the Mediterranean: 1. Takes note of the international and regional instruments on «Women's role in countering terrorism and promoting peace», including in particular the Security Council Resolution number 1325 (2000) on "Women, Peace and Security", the regional strategy for the Arab League issued in 2012 on "The protection of Arab Women: security and peace", the Universal Islamic Declaration of Human Rights of 19 September 1981 adopted by UNESCO; and the Declaration on Human Rights in Islam, adopted in Cairo on 5 August 1990 by the Organization of the Islamic Conference; 2. Stresses that the States and Society need, today, defensive and preventive measures to combat the phenomenon of terrorism, radicalization and recruitment, given the instable security and political situation in the Euro-Mediterranean region; 3. Draws attention to the fact that women constitute the first line of protection and play a crucial role as agents of change in developing and implementing prevention strategies against terrorism, and the necessity of promoting their capacities and concretisation of their role in order to take advantage of their potential, namely in the field of education and upbringing of generations, strengthening the family, social and community cohesion, promoting the values of coexistence, openness and tolerance and in establishing security and peace in the region; through eliminating all sources and causes of instability, including foreign occupation as defined by the United Nations (1); 4.

Firmly denounces the funding sources of terrorist organizations and calls on the international community to investigate and sanction this organized crime and endeavor to counter these organizations and to pursue them in order to eliminate their roots causes of radicaliation; and calls on the international community to strengthen all dimensions of the fight against terrorism according to a multidimensional approach including the enforcement of measures against the funding of terrorism; 8.

Women must be more involved in the fight against terrorism as a problem that threatens all of humanity; 10.

Indicates that the terrorist organizations recruit today the European Muslim women in Europe and abroad who suffer from multiple forms of discrimination; The Committee requests the treatment without discrimination of students, workers and women in general, coming from the south shore, who have not been able to integrate themselves, because of racism and exclusion; Governments should ensure and protect young girls and women to prevent them from joining the ranks of terrorists; Governments should establish monitoring systems and action against the selections of women and men with an inclination to travel to the terrorist organisations; 14. Calls for the need to intensify financial and logistical support by European Union Countries for the benefit of south Mediterranean countries; Emphasizes the need to include the gender perspective in the consideration and approval of new projects of the Union for the Mediterranean, in order to empower women economically, socially and politically, in addition to involving them in assuming responsibility and taking decision positions. Envisages tangible joint projects at university and professional level among women; 15. Requests to encourage women's access to positions of decision-making at local, regional, legislative and governmental levels in order to establish horizontal and vertical policy allowing the creation of mechanisms and means that help implementing the development programs and projects, and which enable the targeted women, by the terrorist thought, to immunize themselves physically, psychologically and morally, and become able to coexist in tolerance within the Union for Mediterranean countries.
